About this gig
Got a dead retro console with corroded traces, leaking caps, or a failing power unit? I design drop-in replacement PCBs and repair modules to bring classic consoles back to life without shell modifications.
Whether you need a modern switching regulator board to eliminate heat, a recap board, or a trace repair module, I deliver production-ready manufacturing packages.
What I Can Design:
Modern Power Supplies: USB-C/PD & DC-DC regulator boards for Game Gear, Dreamcast, Saturn, NES.
Capacitor & Helper Boards: SMT recap boards for tight-clearance handhelds.
Trace Repair Daughterboards: Replacement pinout breakout PCBs for damaged expansion slots.
Deliverables Included:
Schematics & PCB Layout (KiCad / Altium)
Production Gerber Files & NC Drill
Complete Bill of Materials (BOM) with active component links
Pick & Place / Centroid files for assembly (JLCPCB, PCBWay)
3D STEP Models for mechanical clearance checks
Message me with your console issue and board photos before placing an order!

Looking to upgrade a classic console, fix a legacy board, or bring a custom retro gaming mod to life? I design high-performance, production-ready PCBs engineered specifically for retro console hardware, modchips, video/power upgrades, and custom add-ons.
From initial circuit ideas to complete manufacturing files, I turn your retro gaming concepts into physical hardware that works seamlessly with classic consoles.
FAQ
What console repair PCBs can you design?
I design modern power supply replacement boards, voltage regulator upgrades, SMD capacitor/recap helper modules, audio/video amplifier fixes, and trace-repair daughterboards for retro systems (e.g., Game Gear, Dreamcast, Saturn, NES, Game Boy).
Will the replacement PCB fit inside the original console shell?
Yes! I design custom PCBs using original motherboard dimensions and internal clearance limits so the repair module drops directly into the stock OEM casing without requiring case cutting or modifications.
What manufacturing files are included in the delivery package?
Every order includes full DFM production files: Gerber files, NC Drill files, a Bill of Materials (BOM) with active component links, Pick & Place (Centroid) assembly files, schematics, and 3D STEP models.
Are the files ready to send to fab houses like JLCPCB or PCBWay?
Yes. All Gerber, drill, and assembly files are formatted specifically to match the manufacturing design rules for JLCPCB, PCBWay, OSH Park, or any standard PCB fabrication house.
Do you physically fabricate and assemble the repair boards?
No, this gig provides the complete digital engineering and DFM file package. Once delivered, you can upload the files to your preferred PCB manufacturer (like JLCPCB or PCBWay) to have the boards printed and assembled.
